Sobre este artículo
Little, Brown and Company, 1992. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. A Fine, Collectible book. Hardcover tan boards with brown spine and gilt lettering with illustrated~Chronology on the endpapers. Includes b/w illustrations, Sources and Index, 318 pages. William Manchester leads us from a civilization teetering on the brink of collapse to the grandeur of its rebirth during the Renaissance, a dense explosion of energy that spawned some of history's greatest poets, philosophers, painters, adventurers, and reformers, as well as some of its most spectacular villains. The result is an unforgettable journey into the medieval mind, as Manchester ingeniously re-creates the lives of ordinary people and offers vivid portraits of the era's most astonishing figures, such as Galileo, Machiavelli, Anne Boleyn, and Ferdinand Magellan.
